The ambiguity that arises when using multiple inheritance refers to a derived class having more than one parent class that defines property[s] and/or method[s] with the same name. For example, if 'C' inherits from both 'A' and 'B' and classes 'A' and 'B', both define a property named x and a function named getx().
How ambiguity occurs in multiple inheritance?
An ambiguity can arise when several paths exist to a class from the same base class. This means that a child class could have duplicate sets of members inherited from a single base class. This can be solved by using a virtual base class.
When and how does ambiguity arise?
Semantic and syntactic ambiguity
Syntactic ambiguity arises when a sentence can have two (or more) different meanings because of the structure of the sentence—its syntax. This is often due to a modifying expression, such as a prepositional phrase, the application of which is unclear.
